The house
Motel OneStockbroker-inspired budget hotel
Frankfurt's stock exchange sets the theme, translating high finance into an accessible hotel built for trade-fair travelers.
What it’s good at
Listed
The stockbroker-themed lounge pairs Arne Jacobsen chairs with a floor-to-ceiling LED wall.
Listed
Lobby interiors incorporate playful German financial slang beside the Frankfurt trade fair grounds.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Skyline Plaza sits directly across Europa-Allee, and the Frankfurt trade fair grounds are just down the street.
The rooms
Compact, no-frills rooms stick to the essentials, providing comfortable beds and modern bathrooms without unnecessary fuss.
Bar
The One Lounge
High wooden tables host the morning breakfast buffet, and the illuminated bar serves evening cocktails and toasted sandwiches.
How it began
The building opened in 2014 on former railway land, constructed alongside student housing and a local daycare.
